Today I feel like sharing another random walk…in Porto. When we walk it is not always a scheduled walk, I love lonely walks without a meticulous plan. Just to see what cathes my eye…so, come walk with me. Not many words needed.
Abandoned places always speak to me…
Walking on bridges gives you a different view of things.
Narrow streets are often tempting to walk…quite irresistible.
Realising the scale of things can be breathtaking.
His view?
This one! The young Brasilian playing was a complete virtuoso. He played among other wellknown artists, Carlos Santana. It was almost impossible to stop listening.
Just for fun.
Old houses and new art.
And who can resist a sight like this?
Some more of the beautiful wall art.
And we ended our Porto tour with a beautiful play of light and music in the neighbouring church.

Lovely photos. I haven’t been to Porto yet despite my love for Portugal.
There is still time for it I hope!
Thank you for taking us there, AC! What an enjoyable walk. 🙂
I am glad you ventured along, Amy!
I love the narrow street and the street art, especially that huge blue cat!
I am glad you liked it too – that cat was really impressive. Walking down that narrow street I found many interesting details in that painting. And – how did someone manage to paint it there. Almost having your back against the other side of the street…
Yes, very true. I’m always amazed at how someone can paint anything on this scale!
I cannot imagine how they do it really.
More wonderful views of Porto. You are selling it to me.
I hope so…
Ann-Christine, your walk tool you to so many places. I so adore your post. I love your first photo of the old ruin. 😀
Thank you, Cee. Ther were quite some ruins in the old part of the city. Beautiful, overgrown with flowers.
Our cruise ship docked in Porto last month, but we opted to head inland on a tour of Minho Province. Looks like we could have had just as enjoyable time right there in Porto.
Next time!
very interesting sights, makes me want to visit
I am glad they caught your eye too!
I too like walking and snapping things that catch my eye. Nice shots in your post!
Thank you so much – I should do this more often…glad you like that too.
I love a random walk, especially in such excellent company. I also love the glances at street art, and clean washing blowing gently in the breeze.
I am glad you came along, Margaret – I love walking with you!
I’d love to do it for real one day!
Me too! Maybe some day…
Gaily flapping washing and a mysterious row of doors(? )with those lilac-blue flowers. I love seeing the things that you see, Ann-Christine.

Amazing scenes
Thank you – an enjoyable place indeed.
Makes me want to go there once again. Thanks for the virtual walk 😀
You are welcome
Porto! Such lovely memories came back with your photos.
I am glad to have triggered them!
Nice gallery Ann-Christine
There’s something about abandoned places that makes you wonder about the life before
I agree. Enigmatic.
So wonderful Ann-Christine. Thanks for taking me there 🙂
Thank you. Porto is indeed a feast for the eyes.
